COMPANY, LLC (“Patriot”) (collectively, the “Millennium Parties”), by and through their
9

counsel, hereby move the Court for an Order extending the deadline for the filing of the Pre10

Trial Order. The extended date for the filing of Pre-Trial Order is currently due March, 21,
11

2016. In order to avoid a violation of the Court’s Order, the Millennium Parties hereby request
HOWARD & HOWARD ATTORNEYS PLLC
3800 Howard Hughes Pkwy., Suite 1000

12
13

that the deadline be extended for an additional two (2) days to March 23, 2016.
Counsel for Defendants/Third Party Plaintiffs was out of the office during the last week,

14

and thought that the first extension had been given to Thursday, March 24, 2016, rather than
15

Monday, March 21, 2016. Additional time is necessary to allow the parties to complete the
16

final stipulations and objections regarding potential trial exhibits.
17

As of this Second Request, the parties have exchanged exhibit lists, witness lists and
18

deposition designations. Further, a draft of the Pre-Trial Order has been exchanged and the
19

parties believe the substance of the order is acceptable. So, while the Pre-Trial Order will likely
20

be finalized and filed on Tuesday, March 22, 2016, the Millennium Parties are asking for 2
21

additional days.
22

Counsel for the Millennium Parties has consulted with counsel for the Defendants/Third
23

Party Plaintiffs regarding the need and intention to file this motion, and counsel for
24

Defendants/Third Party Plaintiffs affirm that they had no opposition to the motion. For that
25

reason, this motion has been submitted as an unopposed motion.
